( true events )

a child's school was learning about religion.

This child comes along and says he believes in the church of a "Spaghetti monster". The teachers and staff were obligated to devote 1/3 of their time on a lesson about the giant flying spaghetti monster. Soon, they came to their sences and cut it out of their learning seesions upon discovery about the fact that this child completely made it up.
How do you explain this? please post your opinion here!

Wow samy, did you even read the wiki? It's NOT a religion you noob. No one worships the FSM. It's a joke that people use to argue that religion shouldn't be tough in schools.

The argument is: If I have to learn about your religion you have to learn about mine even though it's less ridiculous than Scientology.

Yes..and incase you missed it some idiots do.

My argument is, you don't have an argument so why should we learn about it?

That's not really an argument.

I, sir, am offended. I am no idiot, and yet I am a very religious Pastafarian. Why, right now I am wearing a pirate hat.

Well anyone who seriousley thinks that FSM really exists is pretty easy to convince probably, it was just made out of spite for the decisions made about teaching evolutionism and creationism.

It wasn't spite, it was an example of how stupid religions are.

There is no such thing.

Most "Pastafarians" are atheists making fun of ID, or people who don't want ID to be taught in schools.

He/She doesn't have to, but since they're teaching religion they must include it and teach it.

Alright, prove that he doesn't exist?

I'm not a worshipper, but you guys need to stop saying that people are stupid for believing in him. I mean, can't you take many religions to the point of ridiculousness (as some Christians do)?

I realize that it defeats the purpose FSM was intended for, but so what? Does it really matter what people believe in, so long as they aren't hurting anyone? .

And if God is all powerful etc. why couldn't he choose to appear as a FSM?

p.s. It's 2 in the morning here, so sorry if what I'm rambling/jumping around (it makes sense in my head right now)
